This is a competition bound Line Follwing Robot under development. The competiton is line following and obstacle avoiding, the fastest one wins.
Its has 4 geared motor of 300 rpm. These motors are controlled by a L293D dual H-bridge. The brain of this robot is either Atmega324A or Arduino Mega depending on time I have. It is powered by 2200mAh Lithium Polymer battery.
The sensor consists of 9 IR pairs, for at present only 7 has been used. This sensor is custom made with 9-step adjustable brightness controlled by ATtiny13A.
To avoid obstacle it uses HY SRF04 ultrasonic sound sensor.
I will keep updating the project and upload the codes when complete.
i work with arduino uno and micro because i m beginner yet and i maked a simple line follower with rc car and a L293D dual H-bridge for motors with 9 IR pairs . All rights ! but sitll not faster i don’t know why . know i buy a SRF04 ultrasonic sound sensor and i want to modify it to avoide obstacles in same time follower th ligne .
You should have an ultrasonic sound sensor or some IR sensors to detect obstacle. You may keep checking the obstacle first then check the line position of the bot.
You can check HY SRF05 or SRF04 ultrasonic sound sensor or Sharp Proximity sensors.
